Construction progress: Duplex with WU basement and developed attic

When I think it over again (because Tassimat is asking me countless questions ;) ), I have to say, I really need to write a book about it. I find it all very interesting and exciting. I just need to work on the happy ending.

Are you still keeping up?

No, but that's something for tomorrow ;)

Me neither ;).

But let's keep trying. So I rejected Mr. Th as site manager. However, the then lawyer of GU2 (he also later changed his lawyer) urged GU2 to appoint a site manager. That's how a Mr. Schw. came into play. He called me and wanted to meet me at the construction site before accepting the assignment from GU2. At that time, I saw some light on the horizon again, since he made a very competent impression on the phone. However, GU2 had told him that the house was almost finished, which appeared quite different on site to Mr. Schw. He also did not know the previous expert reports, which GU2 had kept secret. Therefore, he declined the assignment from GU2 but offered me his support, which I accepted. GU2 then commissioned a Ms. F. with site management. There were exactly two meetings on site, then both threw in the towel. GU2 changed lawyers around the same time. While his first lawyer was still quite constructive, the second one is blocking and just buying time.

Not much is missing and I have to keep my own Excel list with the parties involved.

because Tassimat asks me a lot of questions ;)

Well then, let's continue :D

So you had four construction managers now:
1. Mr. P. during the time of GU1: seriously ill, dropped out.
2. Mr. Th. as a substitute, commissioned by you. But then he just didn't show up anymore?
3. Mr. Schw. commissioned by you. Two meetings, then termination by the construction manager.
4. Ms. F. commissioned by GU2. Two meetings, then termination by the construction manager.

You said you want to sue a construction manager. Do you still mean the second one, who simply stopped coming? Is that enough for significant damages claims, or are you only getting the pure construction manager costs reimbursed? Would you like to explain what the new lawyer 2 intends to do?

3 and 4 resigned together. Now it is actually about Mr. Th. Lawyer 2 wrote, however, that we should put this on the back burner because we first want to take care of GU2 and Lawyer 1. It is also difficult to quantify the claims for damages for Mr. Th.; the very expensive expert report should provide statements on which errors are construction supervision errors. Apparently, Mr. Th. has also become seriously ill in the meantime. He was invited to the appointment for the roof expert report and the reason given for the cancellation was that he has been so seriously ill since July that he can no longer move independently. That may be true, but it could also be an excuse. If it is true, then the house is probably cursed because almost everyone involved with it goes down the drain. At least that is my impression.

: Is it getting too creepy for you now?
